  • xMysticMassacre xMysticMassacre (@xMysticMassacre) reported

    Just wanted to play some Overwatch, but noooooooo. 😭 Anyone else having issues? I'm not getting game invites and apparently my invites aren't going through either. #sendhalp

  • RazylDazylGG Sean (@RazylDazylGG) reported

    what doesn't fix ranked: cosmetic rewards do they think overwatch players play comp just for gold guns and a seasonal sticker??? The effort taken to make all these rewards could have been put into building a simple elo system that would make the actual comp community happy

  • sinswlllfindyou Seeer (@sinswlllfindyou) reported

    @BlizzardCS hi, i keep getting disconnected from playing Overwatch with a message "lost connection to the server". and no this is not a problem from my ISP end. any way i could fix it? PLEASE!

  • Kewl3dude1 mchanzo hate account (@Kewl3dude1) reported

    overwatch league site is so broken holy ****

  • PWitchmd Political WitchMD (@PWitchmd) reported

    @SteveScalise Why are you and @GovAbbott not asking for retired military, law enforcement, and armed volunteers to sit overwatch on these boarder ranches? There's a solution for every problem, calibrate your approach by .308 caliburs and i assure you will get a decrease in illegal crossings.

  • Kazmaperry13 goddesszel (@Kazmaperry13) reported

    Overwatch would be funnier if they just separate PC player and console player. cause most PC player do is there match and make there own team lose. I was gold rank and now when they merge players I drop 2 ranks down. Overwatch fix this please?!

  • MariaMaiberg 🇩🇪 (@MariaMaiberg) reported

    She is encaged and you can overwatch her how ugly she is ~ what happens if you don’t support extraterrestrial activity and Scientology and US star-fighters and British secret service at 440hz war frequency

  • BaleComrade Comrade Bale (@BaleComrade) reported

    @igp OPINION WARNING: just nuke the entirety of the overwatch fanbase, problem solved Btw this is a joke

  • Avery44196529 Avery (@Avery44196529) reported

    @rocketsquire I think part of the issue with the original overwatch organisation is that the main leaders were split, causing a rift and the fact that it became more a military than something to lead the world to a better future which was the whole idea of overwatch in the first place.

  • Lazy_Peon_hs Lazy Peon (@Lazy_Peon_hs) reported

    @yaga_hs @PlayHearthstone Priest hate is the same as Brigitte hate in Overwatch. Top tier players didn't like it, so they scream incoherently until they get their way, and then the lower rank players who follow them spread it. There are FAR bigger problems at lower ranks, but only the loudest are heard.

  • wiley_wabbitt Chance the Gardner (@wiley_wabbitt) reported

    @MrAndyNgo What they need is a sniper sitting overwatch on the roof. Surely, with all the troops returning there’s someone willing to take the gig. The problem would be solved in a few days.

  • hoodniggahoshi azure ☀️🌈 dookiehole soaking wet (@hoodniggahoshi) reported

    ever since cross play happened on overwatch, my game has been lagging so much

  • LunaSolVT Luna Sól, Your Half-Dragon Imouto🔞 (@LunaSolVT) reported

    One of the big problems I have is trying to play games that I'm really average at, like Apex, Overwatch, and games that I have no time sunk in like WoW and FFXIV. Nor am I really interested in becoming high tier in either of those.

  • juj_siefevt Siefevt (@juj_siefevt) reported

    Horrible dream last night, was being hunted by reaper from overwatch. Wasn't scared but really pissed. Hid a shotgun in my car and shot him in the gut. Bunch of witnesses since in suburbs but 911 wouldn't work because I pirated phone service then his corpse despawned

  • ShutenDragoon ShutenDragoon (@ShutenDragoon) reported

    I had a similar issue with Overwatch years ago. Where I wanted to go hard into the competitive grind and learn more but after a while i could feel my enjoyment of the game start to slip away piece by piece.

  • pixel_drowned Hot bun summer (@pixel_drowned) reported

    Just lost a game of comp overwatch because the servers are **** and decided to lag me out at a pivotal moment in the team fight **** you Blizzard. This shouldn't happen.

  • hongdzur ً mieszko ♡’s filip !! (@hongdzur) reported

    @sehyoonssock i dont have friends to play overwatch n i was abt to ask if u want to play together but servers n timezones r the problem lol

  • GrimPixls (Shoe) Laces (@GrimPixls) reported

    Overwatch fix your ******* servers? This is the 2nd time today I’ve been disconnected but didn’t lose connection on ANY OTHER SERVICE? On a game I was less than 10 seconds from winning too!

  • PrinceAngelx Angel (@PrinceAngelx) reported

    anyone know how i can fix my lag in overwatch? it's completely unplayable in normal modes. I've tried so much to try and fix it. I've tried repairing the game and even uninstalled + reinstalled it but still nothing. I'm so frustrated and just want to play my favourite game again

  • Lancefishersu Lance_fisher (@Lancefishersu) reported

    @owpathtopro it's unfortunate that players had to suffer the consequences of this poor decision, 5v6 scenarios should not exist in Overwatch competition no matter the level. If a player drops out fix the issue or delay the match for the players and viewers sake instead of pressing forward

  • based_eva 🏳️‍⚧️Marxist-Evaist 🏳️‍⚧️ (@based_eva) reported

    The problem with overwatch is that 5 years worth of aggressive nerfs and balance changes have made every hero painfully overbalanced and just downright boring to play.

  • YachiAbunai Sami (@YachiAbunai) reported

    overwatch should remove endorsements & xp, and fix stupidly ****** quick play matchmaking

  • dishonoredow Dishonoredow (@dishonoredow) reported

    @zeetcherman Hero Bob and fern are the worst issue in overwatch rn*

  • 1noellle noelle (@1noellle) reported

    @xNeverHacked its not overwatch i mean i guess the concept of abilities is similar but thats where the disconnect is

  • BorgerJuices Liam 🛹 😝 (@BorgerJuices) reported

    @wendiglow it's only an issue on overwatch, idk where the deadzone is on the settings. im probably just blind

  • EliasNAdamo Elias Adamo (@EliasNAdamo) reported

    @CirmanGG @vooCSGO Overwatch don’t do anything. Many ppl get away with ragehacking. Where’s OW in these cases?? TrustFactor is the most broken thing.

  • non_one_c Noah ★ NoNiC (@non_one_c) reported

    @Numinar @jabber_joe @Tony_Gowland I compared a lot of ports and when I play in the living room (which I rarely do) Xbox Remote Play had less input lag and better graphics for every game. KH Melody of Memory, the Crash Trilogy and Overwatch had horribe low res and input lag on Switch for example.
